I rounded the corners of the institute making my way to the training room. Where Jace was holding the plans for the next mission. I pulled my phone from my back pocket and glanced at the time. I swallowed hard as I picked up my pace.

when I walked into the room I already saw Jace discussing the mission with Alec and Isabel. I walked over quietly and joined them, Jace made eyes contact with me for a split second before looking at Alec.

"Not surprise you showed up late." Alec barked glancing at me with his sparkling brown eyes. His arms crossed over his chest as he looked back at Jace. I shook my head at him, he's already getting under my skin and I just got here.

I turned my head to see Isabel a blood red smile spread across her face. I rolled my eyes and turned my attention back to Jace. She always tried to get me and Alec together, Izzy always says we're meant to be since we were kids.

There was no denying I had feelings for him, because they are strong. I tried seeing if he liked me when we were fifteen. I did it by kissing him. It wasn't that kind of kiss where I wanted more or I didn't have enough of him. It was that awkward what did I just do kind of kiss.

He pushed me away and started acting different around me. After the kiss we were never the friends we had been before. I regretted what I did, I missed the bond we shared.

"Just a few demons at pandemonium, a quick mission that could only take the two of us." Jace explained again, I slightly nodded and wished that Jace and the siblings didn't want me to go.

"Jace and I agreed that you and Alec should take this mission together,." Isabel finished for Jace, looked back and forth between the both of us.

"Excuse me." I said in disbelief.

"What?" Alec asked.

We both spoke in sync, I glanced at him making eye contact for a couple seconds before I looked back at Isabel. "You and Alec, haven't fought together in a while." She said as stared at her.

"you can't be serious." Alec piped up,

"We thought it would be good, for all of us." Jace said, I understood that. Our skills are a little rusty since the last time we slayed demons. Maybe this was Jace's way of trying to make us stronger.

If that was the case then I was all in, even if it was with Alec. I tried with everything to change the love i had for into hatred, but it never ended well. I hoped I could last an hour or two without bursting my undying love for him. How long could I trust myself for?

"Fine." I said as headed out with Isabel, "Where are you going?" Alec called after us, "I'll see you in an hour, I've got to get ready." I spoke over my shoulder.

"I saw Alec staring at you while you were training the other day." Isabel mentioned as I looked myself over in the mirror. A red two pieced bodycon dress covered the important parts of my curved body.

My sandy hair flowed over my shoulders in tight curls. My face covered slightly with little and improving makeup. I took one last once over of my body before I looked over at her.

"Isabel I love you, but why are you telling me this?" I asked as I took a seat on her black and white bed. I tired with everything in me to act the opposite. in reality I was mentally scream for more information on her news.

"Lily. We both now you like him, maybe even love him." Isabel scoffed confidence leaking through her voice. Maybe she's right, Maybe I did love him. Not way was I I going to admit it to anyone.

Not even Magnus' cat, I missed him.

"Sorry Izzy, but this isn't the way to get little Lightwoods running around. Me and Alec don't like each other, please stop trying." I said seeing a figure in the corner of my eye rush into the room.
